This is a box and lid that is sized to fit a standard Q-tip that has been cut in half. The lid has a snap-fit feature that allows it to stay in place after being closed.
It can fit up to 5 (or more!) tips, and there are slots cut in the top to allow the scent to escape.
I printed this out of Polymaker PolyLite PETG with a 0.2mm layer height and 0.4mm nozzle. I would think that any similar PETG/PLA+/ABS type material would also work great. Depending on your luck, standard PLA might be to brittle for the snap-fit to work well. The model is designed with 0.2mm tolerances, which should work for most printers.
The lid should be printed with the top side on the bed, and the box should be printed with the long dimension going along the Z axis. Depending on your bridging performance, you may need to add supports for the side of the box that is “floating” in the air.
