Default CFL with Dusk-to-Dawn sensor

I've just fitted an exterior light with dusk-to-dawn sensor which
specifies an E27 11W ES lamp.

Bought E27 11W ES and then discovered it says not to be used with dusk-
to-dawn sensors.

Put lamp in anyway, and it works.

Why wouldn't it work and am I shortening the life of the lamp by using
it with a d2d?
