Carlisle ist ein umstrittenes Parfum in der Community – diejenigen, die es mögen, loben seine künstlerische Komplexität, hervorragende Haltbarkeit und die Brückenfunktion zwischen europäischer und nahöstlicher Parfümerie. Andere hingegen finden seinen schweren, all-auf-einmal wirkenden Auftakt überwältigend oder reizend, und es liefert nicht das Erlebnis, das einige aufgrund von Vergleichen mit Layton erwartet hatten. Das Parfum belohnt Geduld, da es sich im Laufe des Tages entwickelt.
