I guess it would all depend upon the time period that the French gentleman would have worn his rosette.
You miss my meaning; Scottish Jacobites saw the French as allies in their struggle to reclaim the throne, and a number of Scots served in the armies of the French king, whose soldiers also wore a white cockade.

White cockades were worn by royalist supporters in France through the Revolution.

So yes, it is appropriate.
