Little woman fuels commotion in French city (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dijon

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

'french city' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'little woman fuels commotion' is the wordplay.
'little woman' becomes 'di' (short for Diane, Diana etc).
'fuels commotion' becomes 'jon' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'di'+'jon'='DIJON'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dijon that I've seen before include "French city associated with mustard" , "French home of mustard?" , "French city renowned for mustard" , "French town known for mustard" , "French city well-known for mustard" .)
