Handsome youth in Greek mythology who was loved by Aphrodite (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adonis

(Other definitions for adonis that I've seen before include "Handsome youth loved by Aphrodite" , "Aphrodite loved this beautiful youth" , "Handsome Gk. youth" , "Greek idol" , "one deemed to be beautiful" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
