Hand-blended in London,
one batch at a time.
A natural perfumery and botanicals house. 100% essential oils. No synthetic fragrance. Ever. Blended and poured one batch at a time.
Our Promise
Made at Connaught Street, one batch at a time.
Every formula is blended here. From the first blend to the final batch. By the same hand that founded the house.
Rose absolute from Bulgaria. Myrrh from Somalia. Cardamom from Kerala. Bergamot from Calabria. Every essential oil in a Yougi formula is sourced from the grower who knows it best, tested at the workshop, and blended in batches small enough to finish by hand.
Every blend starts with a place.
A lavender field at last light. Warm stone underfoot. A garden after dark. Three of the eight, with the oils named on every tile.

What do you want the room to feel like?
Eight candles in the range. Each one built around a feeling. Pick the one closest to how you want to land.
Still made by hand.
I got tired of paying forty pounds for candles made with synthetic fragrance and paraffin. So I spent a year blending the ones I wanted to burn.
Yougi started at a kitchen table in 2019, testing essential oils one blend at a time until the formulas were right. Seven years on, every formula still blended by Emily and made in small batches by the team.
No synthetic fragrance. Not then. Not now. Not ever.
Two perfumes coming in September.
Emily's first two perfumes, blended at Connaught Street and seven years in the making. The waitlist hears first.
One email when they launch. Nothing else.
Come and make something.
Candles, perfume, soap, body butter and reed diffusers, made in small groups at our two London studios. You'll learn how essential oils hold together in a formula, and carry home the thing you made.
From £42. Designed by Emily, taught by the Yougi team. Refreshments on arrival.
The workshop, brought to your kitchen table.
Everything you need to pour a natural candle at home. Pre-measured eco soy wax, a named essential oil blend, a reusable frosted white glass vessel, and a recipe card in Emily's hand.
