Yes, you need a visa, called the “Uniform Schengen” short-stay visa. You can see all the details on the French Embassy's website, but your case is the following:

You wish to visit France and other Member States of the Schengen Area (including France) for a maximum period of 90 days per semester for various purposes (tourism, shopping, business trip, visiting a relative/friend, participation in an exhibition/ fair/ conference, studies, internships, artistic events, research, etc.): “Uniform Schengen” short-stay visa

Note that, even if you didn't leave there airport in Paris, you would still need a transit visa:

You simply wish to transit through a French airport (without accessing French national territory): Airport transit visa
