Brilliant success (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eclat

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">brilliant success</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for eclat that I've seen before include "Brilliant display -- conspicuous success" , "Brilliance" , "Splendour; renown" , "Enthusiastic approval" , "Showy effect (Fr.)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and The Guardian.
