1 youth: A "youth" is either a young person (usually in late adolescence) or the term refers to the time of life between childhood and maturity (adulthood). Example: I spent my youth reading books and killing spiders. When Susie says "I was thinking of a perfume that would appeal to youthful adults, but as well to adult youths", note the use of the adjective "youthful", meaning "young" or literally "full of youth".
2 handle: "To handle" means "to take care of" or "to deal with". Example: Bruno employed Philip Cheeter because he is good at handling corporate clients. Susie says "Think you can handle that?" meaning that she wants to know if Horatio can "take care of" or "deal with" her request.
