The album was recorded in Itaipava, a neighborhood of [[Petrópolis]], a city in the mountainous regions of [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|the state of Rio de Janeiro]] by Brazilian Eng. Ricardo Mosca. Its title came to Ana Caetano's mind during a trip between [[Petrolina]] ([[Pernambuco]]) and [[Juazeiro do Norte]] ([[Ceará]]) on 14 December 2019. It's a three-letter word meant to allude to the fact that ''Cor'' is their third album of original songs and that the group involves three people (AnaCaetano, Vitória Falcão and manager Felipe Simas). Caetano commented that the number three is also a representation of the union of the body, the spirit and the mind.<ref name="bolcor">{{Cite web|last=Antunes|first=Pedro|date=4 de janeiro de 2021|title=E as Anavitória que lançaram disco com Rita Lee e Lenine na virada do ano?|url=https://www.bol.uol.com.br/entretenimento/2021/01/04/e-as-anavitoria-que-lancaram-disco-com-rita-lee-e-lenine-na-virada-do-ano.htm|access-date=4 de janeiro de 2021|website=[[Brasil Online|Bol]]|publisher=[[Grupo Folha]]}}</ref>

Mauro Ferreira, from ''[[G1 (website)|G1]]'', called the production "outsticking" to the extent that, in some moments (such as "Tenta Acreditar"), he considered it and the arrangements to be more interesting than the tracks themselves.<ref name="g1resenha">{{Cite web|last=Ferreira|first=Mauro|author-link=Mauro Ferreira|date=1 de janeiro de 2021|title=Dupla Anavitória apresenta algumas canções certeiras no álbum 'Cor' sem se desprender do passado|url=https://g1.globo.com/pop-arte/musica/blog/mauro-ferreira/post/2021/01/01/dupla-anavitoria-apresenta-algumas-cancoes-certeiras-no-album-cor-sem-se-desprender-do-passado.ghtml|access-date=4 de janeiro de 2021|website=[[G1]]|publisher=[[Grupo Globo]]}}</ref> He noted that the album is "too long for the 2020s phonographic standards", but praised the fact that the duo did not release it "sliced" in EPs or singles, as he states it has become "usual in the market". He finished his review saying that ''Cor'' "exposes Ana Caetano and Vitória Falcão still stuck to a past that brought them premature glory" and that "it's hard not to allow oneself to be enslaved by success".<ref name="g1resenha"/>
