dirty old man

Creepy aging pervert

A dirty old man is an older man who shows inappropriate sexual interest, especially toward much younger people.

The phrase implies lecherous behavior that's seen as unseemly given his age—ogling, making suggestive comments, or pursuing partners young enough to be his children or grandchildren: He's such a dirty old man, always staring at the waitresses.
