Carbon vs. Alloy wheels - at the same weight

I've never really ridden anything other than stock wheels. Let's you have to sets of wheels that are the same weight with the same hubs and spokes, around 1500g. If one has a carbon rim vs. alloy on the other, in broad terms can you expect a difference in how they ride? Would the carbon be more compliant? Some other differing characteristic?
