purely a logistics question, not looking for a way around anything, just wondering if customs treats a sealed unopened product differently from one that that's clearly already been used.

As far as I understand it, what matters is what the product is and how it's classified, not whether the seal's been broken. If you want to be sure, the destination's own guidance will say.

Agreed and this is another one of those "just declare it accurately either way" situations, the seal status isn't really a lever, more of a side detail.
