Natural Magick uses raw benzoin resin, fresh ground, steeped in distilled alcohol according to moon phase. The benzoin dissolves into the liquor over the course of two weeks. The resulting tincture is completely saturated with benzoin, and there is no way you could get more active ingredient into this product. It smells like balsam or vanilla, woody, resiny, sweet, and blends well with any cosmetic product that needs a preservative.
Magickally, it is used for enhancing spiritual vibrations, and for prosperity and success rituals. I've also heard of it being used for courage and to overcome shyness."
