This is my second fragrance from this manufacturer, and the box says "Made in Ukraine" - I am inclined to believe that it is true. I buy many products to support domestic businesses, even if it's just for a trial. This fragrance is similar to Nina Ricci's Premier Jour, a legendary scent from the 2000s. Last year, I bought this fragrance at a makeup store and I know it very well. Of course, after reformulation and a change in place of production, it lost its unique tenderness and became more flat. However, the perfume water from Velvet Sam is very similar to this new fragrance. Of course, it's not exactly like the "original" Nina Ricci, but it's impossible to find that one anymore. But if you don't want to spend a lot and still want to smell nice (even for everyday wear), this is the perfect option. It has a strong jasmine scent, very floral. And the longevity is excellent, just like the first one. So, in terms of price and quality, it definitely deserves a solid "5".
