Nope. Not unless there’s a true testosterone deficiency. A natural normal decline with age will not in most cases respond to supplements.
Best supplement is a willing, adventurous partner, frankly.

These are the “supplements” that I started to use 2 years ago when I was 62 yo.
Lost 20 pounds to get back down to my high school weight (155 lb, 32 inch waist). (Ran track).
Stopped eating junk food. Cut out sugar and bread.
Weight lifting 3 times a week. (30 minutes)
Vigorous elevated treadmill work 3 times a week. (30 minutes)
Ab work and stretching daily. (30 minutes)
Testosterone now at 655 according to recent blood work.
Fortunately, my beautiful wife is accommodating 3 times a week.
Not even testosterone?
Only if you have a true pathological deficiency due to production failure. Normal declines with age to ‘low normal’ and even ‘lower than normal but still significantly present’ can be supplemented with testosterone, but there’s no real convincing evidence that it boosts libido in those situations even as it raises serum levels. Placebo effect is noted, of course.
Healthy diet, exercise, a balanced lifestyle and a willing partner are all better treatments. Treating other chronic conditions, such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, smoking, excess alcohol, drug abuse are also key.
I’m 63, I tomcat around too much, can’t help it, I always hear from a new partner, Viagra? No, as posted above if you maintain a physically vigorous lifestyle and don’t give yourself the sugar diabetes you should still be pretty randy. It ain’t no blessing, though, unless you have the unusual luck of a S.O. with matching desire. It’s the old Woody Allen conundrum, sex or brains (although his real life conundrum was child or adult and he is an irredeemable bastard). Tell you what, I’m tired of morning wood…
