Huh, I'll have to try crushing the leaves to check for apple smell.  I eat a lot of apples of all different kinds and I have a pretty keen sense of smell, I think I'd notice it.

EDIT - I did, and the leaves do smell like apple

Maybe you could make an appley tea from the leaves
I'm on the hunt for jaboticaba, Eugenia, Pouteria, Passiflora, and annona fruits (like the fruit part), if you have any to spare, lemme know!  I'm also looking for any plants that could bear fruit soon :)
