Must ID this mushroom???????? Little stumped Clitocybe ??

I thought this might be something close to an oyster mushroom at first, but it appears not. It is white. It smells a bit like a field agaraic / field mushroom.

White cap and stipe / stem that is connected more or less the stipe is very dry and crumbly, with it looking like insects may have eaten at parts of the lower stipe / stem. There were a bunch of these in a cluster of various sizes. The gills were non staining and white. Has a good aroma. I have not been able to 100% ID. The giills ever so slightly extend to the stipe but do not continue down the stipe / stem. It has a standard mushroom cap appearance. Can't connect it to a known poisonous mushroom, but also have not had a solid ID on an edible mushroom. Anyone have any guesses on this one. It was growing in a cluster on the ground with white mycelium growing in a deciduous growth area. I will likely do some more research. I was thinking it may be sweating mushroom but not convinced. I had a very small amount and almost felt like there was a psychoactive effect with my audiotyr memory recall being heightened as shorlty after haveing a tini cap it was as if I was able to replay my auditory sense in exact mirroring. Not something uncommon but the short term memory seemed pristine. Not sure could have been from my jogging. Guesses welcome on this. If I rule out any known poisonous types after going through my field guides may give them a fry taste is not offputting or sweet sort of standard mushroom taste. I have eaten tons of mushrooms over the years so DO NOT EAT THIS unless you positively ID, I am not saying this is an edible mushroom at this point. THIS ALMOST CERTAINLY IS NOT OYSTER MUSHROOM due to its gills not extending down the stipe/stem. Correct me if I am wrong.
