Gum Benzoin is a fragrant balsamic resin obtained from tree species of the genus Styrax in the family Styracaceae. The Gum Benzoin tree (Styrax benzoin) is native to the tropical reaches of Java, Sumatra islands. It is harvested by making triangular incisions into the tree's bark to establish a flow, which then hardens into lumps when exposed to air and sunlight.

Benzoin is a common ingredient in incense-making and perfumery because of its sweet vanilla-like aroma and fixative properties that slowing the dispersion of essential oils and other fragrant materials into the air. It is used as flavouring agent in baked goods and other foods and as a preservative in natural cosmetics as a substitute for vanilla. Traditionally Gum Benzoin is a major component of church incense. Thefragrant smoke of Benzoin serves as an excellent insect repellent and fumigant. Tincture of benzoin is made by soaking benzoin resin in alcohol. Tincture of benzoin solution is a topical adhesive agent used to provide tackiness and enhance the adhesive property of tape.
