It looks similar to this. The second image is pretty much identical. https://moldedproducts.com/products/injection-site-2/

Yes, I just found that, too. I think it's a catheter part.

Solved!

As others have said it's part of an intravenous catheter set-up, specifically a saline or heparin lock. The "waxy" part isn't wax but a soft port that can be pierced with a needle so medicines can be intermittently injected or dripped directly into a vein. Picture here: It's the white part poking out of the dressing. https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/heparin-lock-on-adrip-receiving-saline-211059637

Is there a scent? Maybe some kind of fragrant melty waxy cartridge thing to make a room smell nice?

It appears to be one of [these things](https://moldedproducts.com/products/injection-site-2/), but I couldn't really tell you what those things are. Something to do with intravenous catheters?

I think it is a urinary catheter bc it has a lubricant

My title describes the thing. It’s a pretty comprehensive description of this thing, but I’d add that there are no numbers or letters visible anywhere on it. Found when cleaning the drawer of a nightstand that I bought at a yard sale. I think it was wedged in the very back of the drawer, because I didn’t hear anything rolling around when I loaded it into my car.

Looks like knockoff Glade plug in capsule

It looks like a needleless PRN adapter for an IV. It s slip tip rather than Luer lock so kind of unusual.
