Depends on where you hunt and what style of hunting you do.
If you are goint to wear one of those charcoal suits and eat chlorophyl tablets, and pack your boots in a bag of pine needles, then it doesn't make sense to carry a gun that you didn't de-smell the same way.
But if you are not going to be doing that, then taking some normal precautions to clean you rifle with the least smelly stuff available and wiping it down thoroughly makes sense. You wouldn't pour gasoline on your boots so why carry a gun that reeks?
