I was just going to post something to the same effect. How deer react to sent probably depends on what they are used to. I hunt a couple of places where they do not get much pressure, and that is where I can see them all day long. Then, I hunt a couple of places where they get a ton of pressure and those deer are really spooky.
I'll agree with you about the older bucks, but I did shoot one that the taxidermist puts at 6 1/2 and he was standing behind a tree watching me walk up to him. I shot him at 50 yards, but this was also in an area that did not get much pressure.
