Is this Agaricus hondensis?

Pretty mushroom near a grove of Red Cedars in Western Oregon.Phenol odor.

Didn't take a spore print. Other than missing the spore print for ID, looks pretty close to Agaricus Hondensis. Any thoughts on if this might be something else?

Although Agaricus hondensis is poisonous, it sure is a pretty mushroom.

Certainly a species of Agaricus. Phenol odor strongly suggests this mushroom is a sickener. Looks like the photos of A. hondensis seen here   http://www.mykoweb.com/CAF/species/Agaricus_hondensis.html . In particular, the brownish disc, the persistent felt-like ring, and the large size fit this species.
