Vicious tends to mean harmful, as with a vicious dog which might attack you. The word you mean is viscous, which is a measure of the "thickness" of a liquid and of its ability to flow. If you pour the same volumes of oil into suitable but equally shaped funnels, the water will be the first to drain through. The oil is slower. It is more viscous.
