You will need French DGAC approval though, to operate a UK registered 'Permit to Fly' aircraft in France.

My aircraft is covered by this Arrêté du 22 mai 2001 relatif au survol du territoire français par des aéronefs de construction amateur immatriculés au Royaume-Uni | Legifrance

. . . erm, an EASA licence is valid for non-EASA aircraft (at least in the UK.)
I believe this is too short sighted. EU/EASA regulations are not issued by a state named EU, but a country being part of the EU. As far as I remember, i.e. a N-reg plane flown in EASA airspace can be piloted with an EASA license, but only in the country the EASA license was issued. If you fly a N-reg in the UK, but have an Italian EASA PPL, you have to have a FAA validation for foreign license. Am I correct?

yes, this is correct, we know someone who had this problem, resolved by getting an FAA licence.
