The correct answer is:

C. laden

Sentence:

The air in our compound is laden with the smell of flower perfume.

Why?

Laden with is a common English expression meaning filled or loaded with something.

Examples:

The air was laden with smoke.
The trees were laden with fruits.
The room was laden with the scent of flowers.
Why not E (redolent)?

Redolent means having a strong smell of or suggestive of, but the usual structure is:

The air was redolent of flowers.

Not:

redolent with the smell of flowers.

Since the sentence already uses "with", laden is the best fit.

Answer: C. laden
