Itching without skin lesions is a common problem of aging skin.
Most common cause for itching is senile xerosis.

Avoid using harsh soaps.You can use some body wash for bathing. Use XXXXXXX warm water for bathing.Apply plenty of moisturizer like cetaphil immediately after bathing.This will allow retention of water.You can take antihistaminics like hydroxizine at night.
Some skin diseases like bullos pemphigoid can present with itching initially and rash appears at a later stage .You need to keep a close watch on it.
Itching in some cases can be associated with some systemic disorders like diabetes, kidney disorders, liver disorders, malignancies etc. Your doctor will help you to find out any XXXXXXX disease.
I hope this can solve your query. In case you have any concerns I will be happy to help you. Take care.
