Prunus Blossom Vase

This is a small vase made of soft paste porcelain made in France in the mid to early 18th century. It is rare to find pieces like this but sadly I am unsure as to where it was made so far. The vase is decorated with prunus blossoms and branches and it is marked with incised letters underneath but I can't figure out what it says. Possible DV for Mennecy but the paste is whiter than the creamy soft paste of Mennecy and St. Cloud. It is certainly a superb piece and in great condition. It has two of the little round balls chipped off. Inside is unglazed. The vase is 4.5 inches tall, 2 inches deep and 2.625 inches wide. I took a picture of the marks from every angle to help. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
