Identificatation On Cool Lookind And Smelling Mushroom

Ok So I live in Massachusettes and whenever we cut the grass, cut down tress, do any kind of lawn work with left over plants involved we throw everything into a compost pile out in my woods. It about 200 feet from any civilization. So i was going mushroom hunting and know that mushrooms like decomposing stuff. So i went over to the pile and boom like 20 mushrooms. I picked 4 out of randomness to take a couple pictures of to try to identify before i picked all of them. The mushrooms Have a Cap that ranges from 3 cm to about 10 cm. They are a light brown on the whole top except in the middle they are a really dark brown and have a nipple to them. I found a couple that were almost flat on the top but also in the same species line. The Stems range from 1 cm to about 5 cm. The gills on the underside of the mushroom have grown so that they attach to the stem and go about 1 cm down the stem. There is no bruzing of the cap and there is very little bruzing of the stem. the stem turns a little bit darken when bruized not much tho. The smell of the mushrooms is unbeliveble. They almost smell like they are grape flavored. Not grape flavored like grapes at a super market. Its almost like a childrens chewable grape smell. If anyone could identify them it would be awesome.

You have a mixed collection there.
To avoid being poisoned it's always best to separate your collections by species.
There are some good edibles in that mix, and some I cannot identify.

Yeah, please separate by species and just present one species per photograph.
The larger ones on the top right in the first photo look interesting - seems like they could possibly be blewits (this is not a positive ID, but a suggestion). You should take a spore print for those and tell us what color it comes out to.

The upper right hand corner looks like blewts possibly.
