Melaleuca armillaris does fit fairly well to your description. I didn't have a picture of an entire shrub, but I just went out in my garden and photographed one. It is not in flower at the moment. I attach the picture of the shrub. I also took a photograph of the distinctive seed capsules that are common and are held on the shrub for years (often only releasing seed after a fire). I will add that picture to another reply and will also add a picture I took of a few of the leaves. I hope they help.
