Whilst I don't think 15W40 would do any harm, Nissan actually recommends 5W40 - check out the handbook:
Earlier it gives "Genuine NISSAN engine oil 5W40 ACEA A3/B4"

Any Fully Synthetic oil will do and that meets the oil industry standards. I used the Halfords cheapo on a BMW in the past..no problem where oil change regime kept to. Annual/12k miles for QQ

Dave, you are bringing back memories talking Oil. I was brought up in the 50’s when young travelling around with my Dad & Uncle who used to ride Speedway for the Swindon Robins and the smell of Castrol R was in all my clothes, almost as good as After Shave - Dave
