Etymology

The noun “séduisant” is a nominalized form of the adjective derived from the present participle of *séduire*. *Séduire* comes from Old French *seduir*, which in turn originates from the Latin verb *seducere* (“to lead aside, to entice”), a compound of *se-* (“apart, away”) + *ducere* (“to lead”). Over time the participial adjective *séduisant* was occasionally used as a noun to denote an attractive or enticing person or thing.
