Thought I'd try my hand at a Riley riddle:
My prefix comes before dessert.
My postfix really hurts.
My infix smells.
I’m older than the hills.
What am I? (8 letters)

I think the answer is
Dinosaur
My prefix comes before dessert.
Din- sounds like Dine
My postfix really hurts.
Saur sounds like Sore
My infix smells.
Nos sounds like Nose
Putting them together
Dine-Nose-Sore is pronounced like Dinosaur
I’m older than the hills.
Dinosaurs first appeared around 240 million years ago
