We generally attribute discoveries to whoever documented it first. It’s almost laughably eurocentric to attribute it to the French based on a kissing style that was widespread there in 1923. Surely people were doing this before then.

It’s not an unreasonable assumption that people were doing this before ancient India but then the question should be why didn’t the ancient Babylonians, Egyptians, Chinese, Roman’s and Greek document on it then?
