so I don't believe "gnossienne" is an actual french word. butttt, what i guess would be the root looks similar to the word "gnosis" which means spiritual wisdom as opposed to worldly knowledge.
"-ienne" is the female form of "-ien" which is the french equivalent of "-ian" in english.
so, a woman with mystical knowledge would be my guess, buttt.. sounds more poetic as "gnossienne"
