Though his love affair with the emerald green shirt has come to an end, the 35-year-old has a lot to play for before he retires from club rugby in May.
Matt O'Connor's men are right in the thick of a playoffs race - currently leading the RaboDirect PRO12 by a single point over Munster.
It will be a chance for Leinster to win their second successive RaboDirect PRO12 title and O'Driscoll could return to action at the RDS against Zebre on Friday.
For now, however, the legendary centre admits he can bask in the success of a famous night in Paris.
"It's great to finish on a high in my last game in this magnificent jersey," said O'Driscoll.
"I feel a real sense of happiness. Not many people get to finish their career on their own terms and certainly not with high emotions like there have been (against France).
"I am absolutely delighted. There is a huge Irish contingent here and I am glad we gave them something to shout about."
