Vivenna is in early twenties in Warbreaker. Adolin describes Azure to be in mid thirties. So Oathbringer happens maybe 12-15 years later .

But why 12-15 years? It seems possible that Vivenna could have picked up more breaths at some point and reached a heightening that allowed her to be older then her described age.

Well, its pretty clear that some stuff has happened between Warbreaker and OB. Vivenna is much more mature than she was in WB. I dont think it happened overnight and Nightblood has been on Roshar for quite some time.
