As long as you're using a full synthetic and you stay on top of changes and filter changes any of the big names will be fine.
People love to sensationalize things. Truth is there are many cars on the road with hundreds of thousands of miles that were maintained using non-synthetic... You don't think these new motors with the best motor oils will last just as long or longer? Don't beat yourself up over the oil. Pick a big name synthetic that meets BMW specs and enjoy the drive.

Fixed it for you.
BTW Royal Purple not only doesn't meet BMW specs but it certainly isn't one of the tob brands either - a moot point because the OP is in the Philippines and can't get that crap there anyway.
