I fully agree: one of the best items we take for travelling. We both have the sweater-type, black with a short zipper at the collar. Wouldn't leave without them even for a weekend. We tried a few of the synthetic so-called "made for Antarctica" pullovers, and geeeeeee do they get smelly after even half a day and even in cold weather !
The Icebreaker is solid (we've had ours for 4 years and no sign of wear), can be washed at 30 or 40 degrees C or by hand of course, is thin enough to wear underneath anything, looks stylish, and --most importantly-- is very warm.
Not cheap, but none of these types of "underwear" are. Go for the natural fabrics, and keep smiling ;-)
