Best Answer

Unless you are allowed to enter the Schengen area without a visa, I assume you are not, you do not only need a transit visa, but a completely regular Schengen visa for that itinerary since you have two transit within the Schengen area.

You will have to clear immigration and enter the Schengen area in Paris and then later clear immigration and leave the Schengen are in Reykjavik.
