.se is not on Google's list of generic top level domains that can be geo-targeted. That means that Google will always treat it as targeted to Sweden and nothing can change that.

You will need to create a second site on a .nl domain or on one of the generic domains from Google's list if you want to target a site to the Netherlands.

Your only option is to change your domain. Google will never pick up on your back link profile or any other signal that your .se domain is actually targeted to the Netherlands. Matt Cutts explains why Google works this way in a this video.
