When women envy other women getting flowers or other gifts from their boyfriend? The facial expression almost resembles sadness. It's hard to describe if you haven't seen the commercial. If there isn't an English word for it, does it exist in a foreign language (possibly Italian)?It's not melancholy, they aren't really sad, they're empathizing happiness. Is it "empathy"? I think that's only feeling other's bad emotions, isn't it?

Never seen the commercial, but from your description of the situation, I'd say "melancholy".
