I love that you matched Wormwood with Snape because he mentions it in the first book! I also agree with all of this. He was so bitter his entire life, and it affected everyone around him. The oil part is particularly funny. How many times have we heard about his greasy hair?

Yes, and I think it's one of JKR's intentional symbolisms. After all, the context it's mentioned in is in a potions recipe, where wormwood mixed with asphodel makes the draught of the living death. As asphodel is both a symbol of grieving over the death of the loved one and a kind of Lily, it seems too layered to be coincidental. Whether you're a fan of Snape/Lily or not, it's an interesting parallel.
