Are there any philosophers who believe that love and pleasure are the ultimate goals (at least for humans)?

I expect that people with this type of ideology are called hedonists, but I've been reading Epicureanism and that seems to be different. Epicurus is clear that the ultimate goals are living a self-sufficient life, free from physical pain and mental distress, surrounded by friends. That doesn't really afford space for hedonism, right? <br><br>According to Wikipedia, Aristippus is an ancient hedonist philosopher, but I haven't been able to find much of his work. So I'm wondering if there are any philosophers that you know of, past or present, who afford prominent status to love/pleasure.
