About Cinthol

Cinthol is a deodorant soap launched in 1952 and one of the oldest surviving Indian personal care brands. Its advertising has centred on freshness in heat for seven decades, a proposition that matters more in the Indian climate than in the temperate markets where most soap brands were designed.
