It's not scentless, butI was told to use Tri-flow lubricant on my axles whenI ran into the same issue.

Before deer season rolls around, with noone else home, draw your bow in a very quiet closet. If a noise exist- you will hear it there. I know this sounds corny, but a sweetP&Y10 pointtought me this trick a long time ago.

Whatever you do dont use a penitrateing oil like wd40 , The 2 sugestions above are good , Or you can take them , your axils that is , out with the help of a press and put lithum grease on them .
