"a unique" is the correct one. The explanation is based on how you pronounce the first sound in the word "unique". The answer is that the first sound in this word is the semi-vowel /j/ sound. The English phonological rule is that we use "a" before consonants and semi-vowels like /w/, /j/ and /r/, which are also known as glide consonants. Whereas we use "an" only before English vowels. That is why we say "a horse" but " an hour". In the first word the letter H is pronounced as /h/ sound, which is a consonant, but in the second word the letter H is pronounced as /au/ which is compound vowel.
A unique is the correct one , if you go back to pronounciation , you will remember that when we pronounce the letter U as it is U then we use the indifinite article a to make pronounciation more easily to pronounce. Like the word uniform , you say , she was dressed in a uniform that made her looks as a princess. thanks a lot.
