For species Mentha x piperita, Mentha spicata and Mentha longifolia grown on land Mendel University in Lednice, was evaluated morphological structure and content of aromatics in the species Mentha x piperita and Mentha spicata. They were found large differences between species in the evaluation of morphological characteristics and they were found differences within species too. It was confirmed that the genus Mentha is a very variable species. The content and composition of the aromatics in the extrudate from the plant Mentha x piperita and Mentha spicata were researched by the method SPEM-GC/MS. The main components of the species Mentha x piperita were: (-) - menthol, linalool, (Z) -a-farnesene, eugenol, alpha-pinene, (z) -citral, limonene, linalool, (E) -2-hexanal, 3-octanone , 3-methyl-1-butanol, methyl acetate. The type of Mentha spicata had the highest content of substances: (-) - menthol, linalool, (Z) -a-farnesene, (z) -citral, alpha pinene, eugenol, alpha-citronellol, (E) -2-hexanal, 3 -octanone, 3-methyl-1-butanol, methyl acetate. The most important and most dominant aromatic compound was menthol.
