Default Cold weather baselayer clothing question.

I am from Minnesota, so it gets cold here in the hunting season.
Looking for a better baselayer then the cotton underwear shirt and pants. I never used the Under Armour or these other type shirts that feel like a silk and are stretchy.
What would you recommend? Do you put a t-shirt under it, so not to stink it up if I am going to use it each day? And for the pants, would you still use cotton underwear, and does that go on the inside or outside? Do you want the scentcheck type material to fit loose or snug?
In the morning I walk up a 150 yard bluff to my stand. I carry most of my clothes on my back-pack, but I do sweat when walking a little. It is a very steep hill. That is bad if you sweet and plan on sitting in 15 to 30 degree weather.

My normal clothes is 2 layers of sweet pants and shirts, 2 or 3 sweetshirts, insulated pants, full size insulated hunting suit, sometimes a jack , and of course hat, face mask, gloves, boots, and handwarmers. I have been in 0 degree weather with this and fine, and able to pull back a bow. but I want to find new ways to make my clothes lighter, less bulky, and warmer.

Thanks for any help
