French journalist Victor Noir's grave features a sculpture with a highly noticeable protuberance in Noir's trousers. This unique characteristic has turned it into one of the most popular memorials for women to visit in the renowned cemetery. According to the myth, women can enhance fertility, bring about a blissful sex life, or even find a husband within a year by following a specific ritual. The ritual involves placing a flower in the upturned top hat, kissing the statue on the lips, and rubbing its genital area. Over time, these specific parts of the statue have become worn and shiny due to the legend's popularity, as depicted in other images. Victor Noir met his demise in 1870, and the life-sized bronze statue portrays him in a realistic style, as if he had just fallen on the street after the incident.
