Clitocybe fragrans is a white mushroom with a "fragrant" (fragrans) odor of aniseed and can be confused with the aniseed toadstool. The cap ranges from 1–5 cm (0.39–1.97 in) in diameter. The stem is 2–6 cm (0.79–2.36 in) long and 2–5 mm wide.[2] While edible, it should be avoided as it can be confused with deadly poisonous species,[3] including Clitocybe dealbata (which lacks the anise odor).[2] It also resembles Clitocybe odora.[2]
