About Savon Dora
Dora is the only toilet soap in the SCS range, and the one product that separates the company's personal-care side from the laundry bars that make up the rest of its soap business. SCS lists it among its products as savon de toilette DORA, distinguishing it from the household soaps Étoile, Kado and Tropick, and sells it through the same trade and online channels as the rest of the Bafoussam output.
