Voigtl nder nokton 60mm f 0 95 vs olympus m zuiko 45mm f 1 2 pro?

Both are fast Micro Four Thirds primes, but they suit different shooters. The Olympus M.Zuiko 45mm f/1.2 PRO frames like a 90mm on full frame, has autofocus, and is weather-sealed, so it's the easier everyday portrait lens. The Voigtländer Nokton 60mm frames like 120mm, is manual focus only, and its wider maximum aperture gives it even more background blur at close range.

If you shoot people and want to work quickly, get the Olympus. If you want a longer, dreamier look and don't mind focusing by hand, the Nokton is the more characterful choice. For how these numbers translate to blur, see aperture and depth of field.
