Where this word comes from

From lū̆xus (“excess”) + -iēs. Ernout and Meillet suggests that the -ur- suffix (found here before -iēs) can be identified with the "desiderative" suffix -turiō, as seen in ēsuriēs (“hunger”). De Vaan proposes an intermediate adjective *luxuros without elaborating further on its etymology.
