1 is correct!

For something to have intrinsic value, it must be pleasurable.

Mill agreed with the statement. He thought that knowledge or virtue wouldn't be of intrinsic value if they weren't pleasurable.

But the intrinsic value isn't proportional to the QUANTITY of pleasure; we also must consider QUALITY. Higher pleasures (like the pleasure we get over gaining knowledge or over helping someone) are inherently more valueable than lower pleasures (like the pleasure we get from eating ice cream).
