I have some 3mm neoprene dive gloves that i use with 100g thinsulate long cuff liners. The long cuff liners make things easier to put the gloves on. This thinsulate solution is also warmer than with my wool liners because the wool liner add compression to the already compressing neoprene gloves which tend to restricts blood flow.
This combo works well around freezing temperatures where the snow is wet or when it rains. I did 2 hrs rides with no problem.
But generally speaking i don't like neoprene gloves because they rarely fit exactly my hands which i believe is the case for most people that aren't lucky enough to have exactly the length, width, circumference for each fingers and palm to fit inside those neoprene gloves. And since they stretch they get back to their shape and don't mold to my hands with time like leather gloves do and because of that they tend to restrict blood flow.
