Etymology

**luxueux** — from Late Latin *luxus* “luxury, excess,” which entered Old French as *lux* meaning “excess, luxury.” The adjective was formed by adding the French suffix *‑eux* (meaning “full of, characterized by”), yielding *luxueux* “luxurious.” The form has been in use since the early modern period, with the spelling “luxueux” stabilized in the 16th century.
