'about fifty getting his kinky enjoyment from' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.

'about fifty getting his kinky' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' ('re' means regarding or about).
'fifty' becomes 'l' (Roman numeral).
'getting' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'kinky' indicates anagramming the letters.
'his' anagrammed gives 'ish'.
're'+'l'+'ish'='RELISH'
