Summary: This does not strike me as Hebeloma at all

This does not look like Hebeloma to me at all.

For Hebeloma the spores need to be roughened, also the
cheilocystidia has a different shape. I’ve not seen one that
doesn’t have the raphanoid odor.

If you have drawings of crystals on the cystidia then this may be
an Inocybe (although that it doesn’t strike me as one at all), ot
some Psathyrella have that feature too. This one likes a soli
saprophyte. Now all Psathyrella have an apparent apical pore,
while their spore print tends toi vary from very dark, blackish
brown to pure brown. I would not rule out Agrocybe either.

You need to do some more microscopy — this is the name of the
game with the brown spores species.
