Cigarette all the rage for Dickensian villain (5)
I believe the answer is:
fagin
'dickensian villain' is the definition.
(character in Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist)
'cigarette all the rage' is the wordplay.
'cigarette' becomes 'fag' (synonyms).
'all the rage' becomes 'in' (both can mean trendy).
'fag'+'in'='FAGIN'
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for fagin that I've seen before include "Gang-leader" , "Dickensian villain" , "Character in Oliver Twist" , "he hanged" , "Dickens' thief/receiver" .)
