They do a good job with their women's fragrances as well. Growing up my Mom wore Chanel No5. My Uncle had brought back a 1oz bottle of the perfume from France for her after the war. Of course she used that up but saved the bottle and got another and I have a bottle she bought me. I love the way it smelled on both of us. and there is a good 40 some yrs between bottles. It's funny, I was missing her the other day and wore it in her memory. Anyway her other signature scent was Halston. OMG! It smelled so good on her. I tried it and it smelled like a funky armpit on me. I still have a 1oz bottle of Coco I wore in the 90's and it still smells wonderful. The French just really have a way with perfume. Only exception is when they reformulate the fragrance for today. Opium and L'Interdit are 2 of those which smell radically different.I actually think Chanel does a really good job of maintaining their classics. At least, they do a decent job with their men's classics.
