Yes Gyeon mild leather cleaner and lotion is the new go to. BMW brands own leather conditioner is also great and readily available your dealer. Gives a nice factory mat finish and fair in price. I don't know who makes it for them but you assume it has been thoroughly tested and approved.

Cream based cleaners seem to work best on the light coloured leather... they seem to remove the dirt when the others don't

+1 on the Gyeon products; I've used both their leather cleaner and leather coat products, they work great as far as I'm concerned. The Gyeon leather coat also leaves a nice smell.
