tesla

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'musky product' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'up in an oriental setting' is the wordplay.
'up' says the letters should be written backwards (in down clue: letters go upwards).
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'alset' can be found hidden inside 'oriental setting'.
'alset' backwards is 'TESLA'.

'served' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tesla that I've seen before include "Unit of magnetic flux density" , "Physicist" , "Inventive sort" , "Inventor" , "SI unit; steal (anag.)" .)
