Skin renewal slows down: Like a biological clock slowing down, our skin retains aging cells longer. Their gradual decomposition releases a characteristic odor.
Our microbial jungle is changing: the bacterial populations in our skin, this invisible garden, evolve over time, sometimes favoring strains with a more “odorous” character.
Impact of drug treatments: Some medications that are often given to seniors work through the skin, which affects our natural odor.
