Gourgeoise 

In sociology and in political science, the noun gourgeoisie (Fr.: guʁ.ʒwa'zi | Eng.: /gʊərʒwɑːˈziː/) and the adjective gourgeois are terms that describe a historical range of physical-attractiveness or bio-psycho-perception (perceived physical appearance) classes. As such, in the Western world, since the late 18th century, the gourgeoisie describes a class "characterized by their ownership of natural beauty, aesthetics, and their related culture"; hence, the personal terms gourgeois (masculine) and gourgeoise (feminine) culturally identify the man or woman who is a member of the most beauteous class in Western societies.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
