With the outdoor flea market and family picnic season upon us, what do you all recommend as a pleasant outdoor “room note” blend that won’t offend those non-pipers among us, excluding aromatics? Thanks.

I find all tobacco pleasant to smell. Virginias, latakias, whatever I smoke gets compliments... or it may just be an excuse for all of the pretty women to give me a compliment. YMMV
But, I would just smoke whatever I liked. Pipe tobacco smells 100xs better than cigarettes, no matter what blend it is.

I love Milan blends, so I recommend Milan's "our" Prince Albert and their Sunset Rum. Both have a pleasant "old Timey" smell and taste wonderful. Colonial Pastime is also great.
Cosmic you have to stop teasing all those women. Before you know it they will want to get familiar with your other pipe.
Pure Virginias that are more towards the bright Virginia end of the spectrum and stoved Virginias both have a very pleasing, "bread baking in the oven" sort of room note. Red Virginias can get a bit cigarette'y, but the bright and stoved ones generally get a positive reaction from the other members of my household. 
Some of my favorites I smoke and have had alot of compliments over are, edgeworth ready rub, Prince Albert (my go to on when fishing on my boat), Troost if you can find any, and some really like My Mixture 965...all of these have very pleasant room notes at least according to people that are around me alot and I have smoked all of these in very confined spaces on the boat with no complaints and alot of compliments.
