She was once known as the thinking man’s sex symbol. Now, as she prepares to turn 70, it seems Jacqueline Bisset has lost none of her spark.

The British actress has spoken of how older women are still interested in sex, even after their looks have faded, saying the problem is, men are often oblivious to their charms.

Miss Bisset, who stars as the ageing and long-suffering wife of a cheating financier in her latest film, also revealed how she could never sleep with someone ‘who didn’t smell right’.

She said: ‘Older women continue to want sex. They’re horny – they want to connect. But the men don’t want to sleep with those women.’

The actress added that a man’s smell is particularly important to her when it comes to choosing a partner. ‘For me, smell is intoxicating,’ she said.

‘It’s an animal thing and very, very dangerous. Voice is another one that pulls a woman back.

'When you’re trying to break up with someone and you hear them on the telephone, suddenly you’re back in that place.’

Miss Bisset, once hailed by Newsweek as ‘the most beautiful film actress of all time’, has never married but had four long-term relationships.

She told the Guardian: ‘I think there are men who can handle quite a few women at once, and do. I hear of people who’ve had three families. It seems amazing that they have time.

‘Lots of men encourage people to be like that. They hang around and go to bars and stuffand there’s no respect for women there. I don’t even know if these guys like women.’

In her latest film, Welcome To New York, Miss Bisset plays Simone, the wife of adulterous financier Georges Devereaux.

The movie is inspired by the downfall of disgraced former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who was accused of trying to rape a hotel maid.
