The four <em>common</em> Spanish words used today, that I saw as soon as I read the list, were: Caducidad Grisáceo Mansedumbre Nítido Concerning the rest of the words you mention, I cannot comment on how common they are, since I'm not a native speaker.

Fecha de caducidad, vaticinar el futuro, un paisaje agreste, un producto abstergente, una imagen nítida, vilipeandear a una persona, un destino fatídico, la caliginosidad del cielo en un día nublado. I think there’s more than three:
Caducity -> Caducidad
Vaticinate -> Vaticinar
Agrestic -> Agreste
Abstergent -> Abstergente
Nitid -> Nítido
Vilipend -> Vilipendear
Fatidical -> Fatídico
Caliginosity -> Caliginosidad
They are not very common in spanish either, but they are used. Fecha de caducidad, vaticinar el futuro, un paisaje agreste, un producto abstergente, una imagen nítida, vilipeandear a una persona, un destino fatídico, la caliginosidad del cielo en un día nublado.
