I believe the answer is:

virgin

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

'it experience' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'one completely lacking in' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'one' could be 'i' (Roman numeral) and 'i' is found within the answer.
'in' is within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for virgin that I've seen before include "New" , "Pure" , "Unsullied" , "Unspoilt" , "Chaste" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
