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

'wilful indulgence' is the definition.
'spree' can be an answer for 'indulgence' (I've seen this in another clue). I am unsure of the 'wilful' bit.

'peers out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'peers' with letters rearranged gives 'SPREE'.

'on' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for spree that I've seen before include "Drunken bout" , "Spell of wild activity" , "Unrestrained bout" , "Spending bout" , "Carefree, lively outing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
