Perhaps there are some dwarf cultivars of either Greek or Spanish Fir that
would do well in your area (since they are native to Mediterrean countries).
The species grow large eventually, but some firs are available in dwarf
varieties. Firs are generally quite fragrant.

You maybe able to get away with a dwarf alberta spruce (Picea glauca
`Conica'). Unsure where you live, but these trees are rather cheap around
here. They do have spider mite issues though.

I would suggest that you go to a few different local nurseries and see
what they have that meets your hight X width requirements. No matter what
you select, you may still have issues with the low light levels.
Good luck.
