Las Pampas Candle by Helen Cornford's Nula Soy of England Recommended by Whom You Know-Al Pacino, It Creates a Perfect Atmosphere for Your Next Argentinian Tango (and Peachy is available to dance with you...)




Everyone we hope has seen Scent of a Woman, starring awesome Boston College graduate Chris O'Donnell.  A favorite scene from that movie is undoubtedly when Al Pacino does the Argentinian Tango at The Plaza (where Peachy works with the fabulous Edward and Joel today.)  If you also dream of tangoing with Al Pacino and have not yet had the opportunity, what you can do instead is create an Argentinian atmosphere with Helen's remarkable candle: Las Pampas.  
This candle is an enticing blend of Patchouli, Ylang Ylang and Grapefruit … Feel sultry and seductive with this remarkable Las Pampas blend.  And while it burns, learn the tango moves on your own.  You never know when you'll run into Al.

Nula Soy was founded by former marketer and mother of two Helen Cornford, from Cheshire, who believes that candles are the perfect antidote to 24/7 living: “They connect us to a slower pace of life once enjoyed long ago”, she says. The inspiration for the company started a long time ago for Helen. As a child she spent endless sunny days in the grandparents’ plant nursery and florist in Cheshire where she played in the fields of flowers, helped to water the plants and visited Manchester’s early morning flower market with her grandfather. Those scents stayed with her as she grew up and discovered a passion for essential oils and natural living in her 20s. She later studied aromatherapy and perfume making. 

Helen has spent the last two years creating countless blends of essential oils to get the fragrances just right: “I only use carefully blended formulas of three or four 100% pure, certified organic, essential oils, in natural soy wax from North America. Blending the oils for Nula Soy has been an inspirational joy”, notes Helen. “I decided to only use a small number of oils in each fragrance because as I developed the blends, I discovered that my focus group simply loved being able to pick out the fragrances of the individual essential oils.”

Helen brings the highest standards to Nula Soy: “I founded Nula Soy with the aim of creating and producing a range of exceptional English-made soy wax candles, fragranced using only 100% pure, certified organic essential oils. I have endeavoured to maintain the highest integrity in all aspects of my sourcing, from raw materials to packaging. It was a given to only use organic essential oils as they are, in my opinion, the finest fragranced oils in the world; and their use promotes considerate farming methods.”



Nula Soy’s candles are registered with The Vegan Society, are not tested on animals and the company donates 5% of its profits to The Bumblebee Conservation Trust. Nula Soy’s six fragranced candles are available in two contrasting colours and in three different sizes.
