Which extract from from "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes uses sensory details to indirectly suggest an impression? “As the black cascade of perfume came tumbling over his breast” “He did not come in the dawning; he did not come at noon” “The tip of one finger touched it! The trigger at least was hers” “Shattered her breast in the moonlight and warned him--with her death”

Sensory detail means it appeals to one of your senses, sight, sound, smell, touch, or tastes, so "As the black cascade of perfume came tumbling over his breast" seems to be the best option here.
