Noticed his bent towards pleasure (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hedonistic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'towards pleasure' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'noticed his bent' is the wordplay.
'bent' indicates an anagram.
'noticed'+'his'='noticedhis'
'noticedhis' anagrammed gives 'HEDONISTIC'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hedonistic that I've seen before include "Devoted to pleasure" , "Pleasure-seeking" , "bent on pleasure" , "Self-indulgent" , "Concerned with self-gratification" .)
