'delilah' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'in crete up to tricks' is the wordplay.
'in crete' anagrams to 'ENTICER'.
Though, I'm unsure how this is indicated.

'perhaps' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for enticer that I've seen before include "Who offers temptation" , "temptress?" .)
