Most nail polish removers these days contain no alcohol of any kind -- the solvent used is either acetone or ethyl acetate.

Most wines are about 12 - 18% ethanol.

Perfumes vary in their alcohol content dramatically, and there are so many other organics mixed in that it would be a bugger to give a correct concentration. And the alcohol in the perfume may not be ethanol . . . but in general the perfumes will have the highest concentration of alcohols.

are you planning on drinking the nail polish remover? I hope not - it's a different alcohol than in wine!

Nail polish remover does not contain alcohol at all- it is acetone, and I would strongly advise you not to drink it...
