Why does lord Henry choose Dorian as his disciple?

Lord Henry teaches Dorian about decadence, a concept invented in the Victorian Era that relies on pleasure before morals. Before meeting Henry, Dorian was relatively innocent, and he followed the strict Victorian social codes of the time. But after Dorian becomes fascinated with both Henry and the concept of decadence, he plummets into sin and frequents the SoHo (red light) district. If Henry had never given him the book that changed Dorian's outlook on life, he would have never done all of those decadent things in the first place, and he wouldn't have been a slave to the devil within his portrait.
