France - its capital (5)

I believe the answer is:

paris

(Other definitions for paris that I've seen before include "European capital city" , "City on the Seine" , "Prince of Troy - capital city" , "Eiffel Tower city" , "Trojan prince who abducted Helen" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
