The studio

Rahu means calm.

Rahu turns emotion into scent, form, and experience. It started with a simple desire: to turn memories and feelings into things you can actually hold, burn, and live inside.

Founded in 2021 in Tallinn by Tom-Olaf Urb, Rahu makes honest, unisex perfumery. Poured by hand, or built to order.

Our mission is simple: fill the world with quality unisex perfume worth losing yourself in.

How we work

Four ways we make scents for brands.

01

Signature Scent

Ambient fragrance for a physical space: lobby, flagship store, showroom. Tuned to fill the room and stay with whoever walks through it.

02

Product & Packaging

Fragrance for a specific product line, carried from the first accord to a formula ready to bottle.

03

Brand Standards

Your scent, put into words: formula, sourcing, feeling. So it stays true no matter who's holding the recipe.

04

Launch & Event

A short-run scent for a single moment: a campaign, pop-up, opening night.
