I will play a bit more with this parameter, but whenever I used it on portraits the results became worse in both directions. But I must admit that I am satisfied with how the automatic white balance of my main camera (Canon 5D2) renders skin tones, making no or only little WB corrections necessary and I never observed a green or purple tint, even in very difficult mixed light situations. My supporting camera (Sony RX100M2) is a bit different in that case and I will try the effect especially on those pictures. Really problematic are some cell phone pictures, but lacking RAW and delivering oversaturated JPEGs, it's hard to correct them without losing too much.
