Basement framing

I am framing up a basement to be finished. A closet will be along one of the
foundation walls. I planned to use a 4 mil vapor barrier before the drywall is
hung. Will this be enough to help control mildew and a musty smell in the closet
or should I also paint the walls with a waterproofer before framing? Also the
floor is a concern too. I don't want moisture seeping through there either. Just
don't want a call in a couple months that their clothes smell like a barn.
Thanks in advance for your responses.
