I think this is a 3 litre Cottin et Desgouttes, made in 1925, Grand Prix De Tourisme.

No - the coachbuilder was 5 letters long.

I'd guess that it's something French, Dubos?

It was a French coachbuilder but not Dubos.
Perhaps lesser known.....

Ottin?
That's it!
The car was also known as a "Sans Secousse" (literally "without jolt") saloon.
Another point for you.
