Pronunciation of "Sfiligoi"

So, I know there's been some debate in threads on here as to the pronunciation of certain brands.

I thought this would be the most appropriate venue to ask how you pronounce "Sfiligoi!"

Is it possible for you to spell it phonetically so I don't sound like an idiot if it comes up in conversation?

Thanks!

someone told me the S is silent. So Filligoi? Whether its true, I have no idea. Just what I heard though the grapevine.
