Summary:Commun.Math.Phys. 254 (2005) 401-423 When string theory is compactified on a six-dimensional manifold with a nontrivial NS flux turned on, mirror symmetry exchanges the flux with a purely geometrical composite NS form associated with lack of integrability of the complex structure on the mirror side. Considering a general class of T^3-fibered geometries admitting SU(3) structure, we find an exchange of pure spinors (e^{iJ} and \Omega) in dual geometries under fiberwise T-duality, and study the transformations of the NS flux and the components of intrinsic torsion. A complementary study of action of twisted covariant derivatives on invariant spinors allows to extend our results to generic geometries and formulate a proposal for mirror symmetry in compactifications with NS flux.
