Tincture of benzoin is a pungent solution of benzoin resin in ethanol. A similar preparation called Friar's Balsam or Compound Benzoin Tincture contains, in addition, Cape aloes or Barbados aloes and storax resin.[1][2] Friar's balsam was invented by the English doctor and MP Joshua Ward c. 1760.[3]
