In Paris, farewell to a god? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adieu

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in paris farewell' is the definition.
'adieu' can be an answer for 'farewell' (adieu is a kind of farewell). I'm not sure about the 'in paris' bit.

'a god?' is the wordplay.
'god?' becomes 'dieu' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'dieu'='ADIEU'

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for adieu that I've seen before include "Farewell, adios" , "Adios, Arrivederci" , "Parting greeting" , "Goodbye, mon ami!" , "Goodbye, madame" .)

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