(GPS) VOR Approach Rwy XX

Hello. I am trying to find out a bit more about approaches labeled on Jeppesen Approach Charts like in the title.

I know that RNAV (GPS) Rwy XX Approaches can be flown with or without GPS and no backup conventional navigation (no overlay) is necessary as long as the aircraft is RNAV equipped.

But what when the approach is named e.g. (GPS) VOR 05 ?
Can I fly with GPS only or is it mandatory to have the VOR displayed as a backup and x-reference? The approach btw happens to be in Geneva / LSGG and the minimum is not an MDA, but a DA with lower WX minimums compared to a conventional VOR approach.

Does anyone have more info on this? References? Explanations?

Cheers
