These are variations on a similar concept. pleased = a positive state of being where in there subject has been gratified often as a reaction to information. I am pleased with your performance on the test. pleasure = a noun which is a positive feeling usually caused by a stimuli to any (one or more) of the senses. I get so much pleasure from your back rubs. pleasant = a description that can be used to describe any positive and enjoyable subject or add a positive meaning to a description. The sent of the soap is pleasant. pleasing = an infinitive form of "to please" = to make pleased as seen above Pleased works well as a replacement for any of these terms. I find the sent of the soap pleasing, you test grade pleasing, and your back rubs pleasing.

"Pleasure" is an abstract noun, meaning a good feeling. "Pleasant" is the adjective form. It's quite similar to the meaning of pleasing, except "pleasant" can't be used as a verb in the continuous form. "Pleasing" means something gives pleasure. It's the active voice. "Pleased" means someone has received pleasure. It's the passive voice.
