God no. White people think it's a compliment, but it's just them having a weird racial fetish.
Usually people who would describe you as "exotic" are the same who will raucously claim they CAN'T be racist because they have a Black friend (aka the most white person response that is also racist).
I've only ever found people who use "exotic" as a descriptor for other humans to be the most passive aggressive racist white shitbags ever.
Be very careful around people like that. They don't even realize how hurtful they are.

It's a compliment take it and run girl. I have two beautiful mixed daughters and they receive compliments daily
One time someone said that to me and I was confused lol. I’m mixed as well with my dad side being Lebanese and my mom side being Latina.
As a mixed person I don’t like that kind of compliment. Makes me feel like I’m an animal or something
It's definitely meant as a compliment.
