Morphology
The phrase 'unique flair' is compositionally transparent: 'unique' (distinctive) modifies 'flair' (a stylish or natural talent), so the combined meaning 'a distinctive talent or style' is directly derivable from the constituents. This adjective+noun pattern is common and cross-linguistically straightforward, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
The phrase unique flair puts unique ('one of a kind') together with flair ('a stylish, showy touch'), so imagine a person adding a small, special touch that catches the eye. So, when we say someone has unique flair, we mean they have a special quality that makes them 'stand out'.
