Venus IS the Roman goddess of love and beauty. Aphrodite is the Greek version. When the Romans created their civilization, they were inspired by other Mediterranean societies. They admired the Greek religion and mythology so much that they kept the same gods and goddesses, and kept the mythological tales. All they did to change the religion was change the names, with the exception of Apollo, the God of music, medicine, prophecy, and Archery. His name stayed the same, proving the copy-catting of the Romans.
