I don't know if I smell my age but I buy use perfume if I like it. I used during my college days the EL white linen, not appropriate for my age but I love the scent up to now. I also use Pleasure, left her and then go back again, the scent is very refreshing esp. during summer. I use Chanel Mademoiselle for special occassions and Angel by Thierry Mugler during colder season.
