I would expect Excel to not deal properly with UTF-8 data in CSV, so what you could try instead of directly opening the .csv with Excel is to use the import function within the "Data" tab where Excel allows you to specify the character-encoding. Select import from text and choose your csv file then select UTF-8 encoding. Not sure that helps, but that's what I would try (not using Excel for years 😉).
