^ In New Moon, when Edward, Bella and Alice are in Volterra, Aro feels Edwards insane allure to Bella's blood and says that his sense of self control puts Carlisle to shame. After this, Bella can even cut her hand and have blood dripping from the cut, and Edward insists it doesn't bother him anymore. Her blood is said to be a thousand times more potent to him than anyone else's, and he has always been able to resist it, even in the beginning. So I would probably say due to this, Edwards self control rivals Carlisle's. It would be interesting to find out if Carlisle could resist someone's blood that attracts him as exponentially as Bellas does to Edward.
