It depends on the context.
If you meet someone for the first time, you could say:
"Es ist mit ein Vergnügen."
Example:
You got a new job and you introduce yourself for the very first time.
Herr Braun: "Hallo, Xavier. Ich bin Martin."
Du: "Hallo, Martin."
Herr Braun: "Das hier ist Dennis. Er arbeitet in der IT-Abteilung."
Du (handshaking): "Es ist mir ein Vergnügen."
But "Es ist mir ein Vergnügen" sounds a bit old-fashioned. Unless you are old or surrounded by high society people, you wouldn't say that.
Do you have an example for a situation in which you would want to use "it's a pleasure"?
