Alchemy description: Carrying capacity increases by <value> for <duration> seconds.

Enchanting description: Carrying capacity increased by <value> points.

Fortify Carry Weight increases the wearer's maximum carry weight, i.e. increases the amount of items that can be carried. It is similar to the Feather effect in previous Elder Scrolls games.

Potions (custom and built-in) provide a temporary increase, that only lasts for a specified duration, after which the user's carry weight is returned to normal. Enchantments last for as long as the item is equipped, but are generally smaller in magnitude than potions.
