— Vinegar (8)
I believe the answer is:
balsamic
'vinegar' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for balsamic that I've seen before include "Concerned with healing" , "BAs claim this strange type of vinegar" , "Variety of vinegar" , "smelling of perfume" , "Italian type of vinegar" .)
